We present results of daytime site testing at Dome C in summer
2003–2004. Daytime seeing has been monitored during 2
months using a DIMM on the bright star Canopus, giving median value of
0.54 arcsec. An every-day best seeing period has been observed around
5 pm with seeing around 0.3 arcsec. First isoplanatic angle
measurements, based on stellar scintillation, were also performed
during the month of January 2004, and have given median value of 6.8 arcsec.
